991 GT3 the ultimate drivers' 911?

[Alpinestars]

The ultimate 911? Certainly the best colour!

6 seconds quicker than a 997GT2 and 997.1 GT3RS.

Enjoy.

I guess you are in a better position than most of us to judge!

With several 997 GT3's in the garage, what do you think? Which GT3 in your garage would you take for a Sunday morning blast into Wales?

Either of the 997s. Better steering feel and a manual gear change. They also sound better most of the time.

Where do you get the 6 seconds data from? As it's only 17secs quicker than the 7.1RS round the Ring, I doubt it can pull 6 over such a short track... Happy to be corrected though.

It is a lovely colour, however real drivers use a clutch!

I must admit I was very surprised. And I know it was a different driver.

Three Porsches at the ring same driver similar conditions similar traffic, never been to willow springs so don't know if it's a short track with plenty of bends or long and fast.
Might be that the 991 is a tad better on tight twisty stuff whereas the gt2 has better torque and is faster on the long runs up to and just over 200 mph gt2 definitely has better 0- 100 times
What a car that 996 is and just overly in yellow or red

0-100 times are virtually identical and in the real world easier to hit in the 991.

Willow doesn't appear to be too twisty

Here's another quick review. Conditions were not ideal but worth looking.
